What If You See Baby Turtles

April 13th, 2008

Baby loggerheads are tiny creatures that would fit in the palm of your hand.  They hatch, climb out of their nest, and make their way to the ocean.  It is very important that they not be disturbed during this journey!  They have to make their own way to the water.  So if you see  baby turtles, please do not place them in the water.  They may look like they are struggling a bit, but Mother Nature and they know what to do.  Now if you should shoo away some sea gulls or ghost crabs, I bet the baby would appreciate the assist.
